Thursday, July 11, 2024 –President William Ruto has, finally, dissolved his entire Cabinet following public uproar on under-performance.
After making good his threats to restart the country on a new slate following weeks of Gen Zs protests and a final dialogue with the opposition, President Ruto has today, Thursday, sacked his entire Ministers so that to bring fresh ones on board.
Among those who were send packing in the sweeping orders are Interior CS Kithure Kindiki, Roads and Transport CS Kipchumba Murkomen among others.
Leaders both from the opposition and government have lauded the head of State for taking the bold move so that to regain public trust and confidence.
“Sacking all the Cabinet Secretaries is a solid start,” Nairobi County Senator Edwin Sifuna commended the president.
Kieleleshwa Member of County Assembly MCA Robert Alai also said Ruto’s teaming up with ‘baba’ will give this country a new fresh look and that funded protests could bring down this nation.
“Cabinet dissolved after Baba’s advice. Government can’t bow to unstructured pressure. That’s a cause for anarchy and national instability,” he wrote.
Following President William Ruto’s sweeping dismissal of Cabinet Secretaries, according to the Kenyan Constitution, he must now nominate new candidates for the vacant positions. These nominations will be subject to approval by the National Assembly after undergoing a vetting exercise by the Parliamentary committees.
Each nominee must meet the criteria set out in the Constitution and take the oath of office before assuming their duties.
Article 152(3) stipulates that the National Assembly must approve or reject the nominees within 21 days. Cabinet Secretaries must only be nominated based on their qualifications, experience and ability to perform the functions of the office.
